About this Event
October marks Cyber Security Awareness Month.
Discover everyday cyber risks in SMEs and how to prevent them.
Kingston Council, Kingston Chamber of Commerce and Grow London Local have partnered with the Cyber Resilience Centre for London (LCRC) to deliver a practical, jargon‑free workshop exploring the everyday cyber risks faced by SMEs.
You’ll also be introduced to Cyber PATH, which provides smaller organisations with fully funded cyber security services to strengthen resilience in both your business and the wider UK economy. This includes vulnerability assessments, staff training, and Microsoft 365 configuration reviews, all presented to you in clear, easy to understand language.
This session is ideal for any sole trader, micro, and small to medium sized business or third sector organisation responsible for safeguarding personal data. In a rapidly advancing world, not least with current discussions around the use of AI, cyber security is everyones business.
No prior technical knowledge is required to take part in this session. This presentation is designed to be accessible, practical, and actionable for all participants.
What you'll cover:
- The rising cost to the UK economy from fraud and cyber crime.
- Everyday cyber risks towards SMEs with examples of threats you could face.
- Overview of fully funded Cyber PATH services available to smaller organisations.
- How to access Cyber PATH support and what to expect.
Whether you’re preparing for Cyber Essentials accreditation, meeting commissioner requirements, or simply want to better protect your customers, staff, and data, this talk will walk you through the support available and how to access it.
FREE to attend, refreshments provided.
